About

SexyCooldowns is a logarithmic cooldown bar. What's that, you say? Well, most timer bars you're used to are linear. That is, the distance between 0 seconds and 10 seconds is the same as the distance between 50 seconds and 60 seconds. A logarithmic cooldown bar is somewhat different - it represents cooldowns on a compressed timeline, so that cooldowns that are closer to being ready are represented as more active on the bar. This lets you represent a large amount of data on a single bar, and have it remain useful.

In short, SexyCooldown is a single consolidated timer bar for all your spell, pet's spell, item, and proc cooldowns, as well as buffs, debuffs, and totem timers. It's very flexible, and can be customized to fit into your UI as best you see fit.

Features

Spawn as many bars as you want, and show the specific information you want on each.

Supports spell and talent cooldowns, explicit and internal item cooldowns, buffs on you, debuffs on you, and debuffs on your target or focus.

Very highly configurable look and feel. Build bars that will fit into any UI.

Bars may be oriented horizontally or vertically, and move in either direction.

Extensible - can support virtually any kind of timer. Currently works as a cooldown, buff, and debuff timer, but the possibilities are endless.

Demo

Here you can see that I have set up three separate bars, one for my cooldowns at the bottom, one for short buffs on me (<45 seconds) above my unit frame, and one for my debuffs on my target above the target unit frame.

/Important
You have added option (Bars->Icons->"Disable Mouse") not to be able to click at an Icon on the bar. It would be very nice to change/add another function and that is the possibility to click through the icon. I often want to look around or change target by mouse and accidentaly click on an Icon becouse its moving an not click through :/

There is still a problem with this amazing addon and its conflict with the Holy Word: spell, for priests. Holy Word: Serenity and Holy Word: Santuary give the following error and keeps spamming it until the effect ends. This is the only problem I have with the addon, everything else works fine but it prevents me from using it as holy and would really rock if it got fixed :) Thanks

Also what khurzog said. The way you have the event types set up, you can make these bars be non-class specific. I see no reason to need a different profile for each character. It should use a global profile by default, with the OPTION to use character specific bars.

i just went into the acct wide LUA and made every character in the "["profileKeys"] = {" default instead of "charname - server" this was much faster than doing it ingame on every toon. my question is, why not default by default? almost every other addon does =D

how would i go about editing sexycooldown so it loads up "default" profile instead of character specific. i realize it remembers which profile once its changed, but i was wondering how to get this behavior automatically. sometimes when redoing my UI it gets to be tedious to load default on every toon. thanks =D
